Boom, Zap, and Roar: Multi-disciplinary characterization of volcanic explosion, jet, and plume dynamics</b><strong> <br></strong></font></p><font size="2">Explosive volcanic eruptions generate<b> </b>highly electrified,
multi-phase momentum-driven fluid flows (jets) that can transform into
buoyant plumes. Understanding the dynamics of these systems is critical
for forecasting eruption behavior and interpreting geophysical and
visual observations of the jets and plumes. Unfortunately, these
eruptions present numerous hazards and the interiors of the jets and
plumes are obscured from direct observation. In this session we welcome
submissions that discuss the dynamics of explosive eruption processes
from generation to cessation with particular foci on processes that
occur in the jet and plume, such as how lightning manifests in a jet or
plume, particle concentration gradients and aggregation, turbulent
structures, etc. We are particularly interested in studies that use
field observations (e.g., seismicity, infrasound, gas, visible,
infrared, and UV imagery, lightning, radar, deformation), laboratory and
analog experiments, and/or physics-based modeling. </font><p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><font size="2"> </font></p><p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial"><font size="2"><strong><span class="gmail-m_7254767222978781000gmail-il">Session</span> Conveners: </strong>Kathleen McKee (<a href="mailto:kfmckee@carnegiescience.edu" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">kfmckee@carnegiescience.edu</a>), Benjamin James Andrews (<a href="mailto:andrewsb@si.edu" style="color:rgb(17,85,204)" target="_blank">andrewsb@si.edu</a>), Mary Benage (<span class="gmail-m_7254767222978781000gmail-gI"><span><a href="mailto:mbenage@usgs.gov" target="_blank">mbenage@usgs.gov</a></span></span>), and Sonja Behnke (<span class="gmail-m_7254767222978781000gmail-gI"><span><a href="mailto:sbehnke@lanl.gov" target="_blank">sbehnke@lanl.gov</a></span></span>)<br></font></p><div><font size="2"><br></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline">We look forward to reading your abstracts.</span><br></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline"><br></span></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline">Regards,</span></font></div><div><font size="2"><span style="color:rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);text-decoration-style:initial;text-decoration-color:initial;float:none;display:inline">Kathleen, Ben, Mary, Sonja</span></font></div><br clear="all"><br>-- <br><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr">Kathleen F.
